Syria : Aleppo rebels behead a child

Video

Aleppo "moderate rebels" brutally beheaded a youngster they have captured earlier today [July 19, 2016] near Handarat Refugee Camp in northern Aleppo. The child, who is ostensibly under the age of 12, was arrested by Islamist militants fighting for the Turkish-backed Nour al-Din al-Zenki Movement for allegedly being a fighter of the Palestinian Liwaa Al Quds (Al-Quds Brigade).

However, a footage released by the captors shows the underage wearing ragged clothes surrounded by bearded fighters in the trunk of a pickup car. Another sickening video shows a knife-wielding fighter beheading the child who has been laid down on the trunk with his hand cuffed behind his back. With the ominous Allahuakbar shout, the executioner holds high the child’s head then put it down on his back.

Liwaa Al Quds is a pro-government Palestinian paramilitary faction made up of the Palestinians who have been driven out of their homes in the Handarat Camp once Islamist militants took over the neighborhood. Today, the group is fighting alongside the Syrian Army to retake the Camp.
